Golden Glade Coming Home Once Again

Aspen made a sharp movement as the words of his explanation caused a twinge in her heart. " I thought you would want your space to think about what I did, i-if you still loved me." she frowned slightly head still tucked into him. "Alder, nothing could ever make me stop loving you," she stated meaning every single word.

"Not a thing. You were right in saying perhaps I needed some space, but I think that we both did, I just...I wasn't prepared for it to be so long. I'm slightly relieved that you didn't just stay away that much time, you had wanted to come back but you couldn't and I'm glad to see you're healthy now....but please don't do that again," she stated calmly but a whine towards the end almost begging him.

Alder explained that he would not hold any rank until he had proven himself back to her and for a moment she almost tried to talk him out of it. Though, she figured that attempt might fail because he could be stubborn if he wanted to be. So instead she just nodded remaning silent in his embrace.
